Doesn't mean shit without enforcement..

The government doesn't know what goods each factory is producing, they still pay taxes on sales, paying employees and overhead. They don't have hidden factories that operate in secret..

[TheVrist]

Just to clarify, I said they don't honor patents. Not trademarks, they do however skirt around TMs by altering the name of the products.

They have TM laws, have always had them, they don't enforce them unless a company infringes on a company that is resided in china.

The 70% you.seen in the article are goods in transit. The raids, though not specified,.are most likely than not, people counterfeiting and already existing china product.

Nothing means shit to you. Every time it becomes obvious you're wrong you just throw out another hail Mary.


Just admit you do not understand. All your points thus far have been foolish.

This entire discussion is about trademark infringement. Products that are the most popular in reproduction whether you do or don't enforce patents are also illegal in trademark law as well. Since it's not just the name on the tag that's usually trademarked, but the look as well.
